Abstract

A functional-film fabricating method includes applying a coating by ejecting droplets of functional liquid from plural nozzles to ejection areas for forming a functional film which are surrounded by bounded areas having a liquid repellent property, during a single scanning. In applying the coating, when there is a non-ejectable nozzle out of plural nozzles to be used for applying a coating to a single ejection area, the amount of droplets of the functional liquid ejected from another ejectable nozzle to be used for applying a coating to this ejection area is larger than that of cases where there is no non-ejectable nozzle.
